Helping children preserve and protect the gifts of family, nature, and literacy

Author School Visits

“With arms waving, ears listening, and voices singing, the students at Lake View Elementary joyously joined author Crystal O’Connor as she shared her engaging book Jake and the Migration of the Monarch. At times during the presentation it was difficult to determine which were more thrilled…the teachers or the students!  Author visits are always informative and educational; however, Crystal brings the entire package.  With music, costumes, storytelling, and interaction with students and staff, she provides one of the most outstanding programs I have ever seen!” Joan Beth Page, Assistant Superintendent, Dillon District One

“The school visits were a great success at all Georgetown County Elementary Schools.  It is with great pleasure that I recommend the work of Crystal O’Connor, Ph.D.  The material is original and creative.  Without exception, all participants gave the highest ratings possible on their evaluations... Again, I would recommend this program because it is informative, engaging, and provides opportunities for active learning. Most importantly, it makes learning fun.”  Dr. Randy Dozier, Superintendent, Georgetown County School District
